Hello Beverly,
I am excited to hear your news. As part of a Learn and Serve Grant, my
fourth graders are creating a butterfly garden and habitat in the school
yard. This is where our kindergarteners will be able to set their newly
hatched butterflies off in the spring. We would welcome any
information/websites/activities that you could send our way as we learn
about the needs of butterflies.
Thank you!

Hello, All.
I have just returned from a week in Mexico at the Monarch butterfly
wintering sanctuaries. I was part of the NJ Monarch Teachers Network.
We
attended a three-day workshop last summer to qualify for the trip, and
it
truly was a life-changing experience. I have been involved with
monarchs for
about 12 years. With representatives from Ontario and the US, and
meeting
teachers in Mexico, I felt like a global ambassador. Let me know if
you'd
like to hear more!

I am taking the course for credit, to round out my "highly qualified"
credentials. Currently Elementary Science Specialist, I would like to
teach
middle school science if ever I return to the classroom.
